Thanks for the feed back; it’s the first time Anne-Marie and I will travel together in the LC, in the past she’s always joined me en-route. Her idea of a holiday isn’t everyday driving. Hence the question of POI’s – we’re fairly easy and are happy to see what’s happening locally, especially local markets and nature.
In the past we’ve travelled on the Africa Twin so 400 kms was just OK I’m hoping the LC Troopie will happily eat up the km’s.
I appreciate the route has been talked to death with an incredible mix of reviews… especially corruption….. and I don’t fancy driving 4500 kms just to be disappointed.
The owners of Sutuka camping have just informed me of the following:
“we are returned from germany the 15 of august.
there is a new regulation in senegal. you need a carnet de passages for your car if it older then 5 years. if not-the customs give you a escort up to the gambian border ( ca. 220 euro)
no more visas on the mauretanian border!!!!!!!!!”
Daaarnn did they also get stitched up or is this now the case….
Cheers
Matt
